10. RECOMMENDATIONS
Rajnish Sharma
Former General Secretary, Indian Business Chamber in Vietnam
“I voluntary served as General Secretary of Indian Chamber of Commerce (INCHAM) in
Hanoi, Vietnam and hired Yen for the office of this organization. Being a not-for-profit
organization it is very critical for this office to employ a person like Yen who is not only
exceptionally good in engagement with all board members but at the same time very
organized and importantly self starter. I can easily attest to these important qualities of
Yen for organizing the events during her tenure with INCHAM. She won confidence of
other board members with her ability to maintain ledger and negotiations with
suppliers for better preparations of events. Her ability to communicate in English is
another asset helped us to work remotely and eventually saved a lot of time for event
preparations.”
James White
Director, Center for Business Analytics and Health Informatics at Keuka College
“During the 2015-2016 academic year Yen was a student in the Masters of Management
courses I taught at Keuka College. She was consistently at the top of her class and
displayed a curiosity for learning that was exemplary. In addition to her high quality of
academic work, she was able to work effectively with others, as a team member or as the
leader. I would highly recommend Yen for your organization!”
Garrett Douglas
VP Business Development & Strategic Initiatives at Global Interconnect, Inc.
“Yen is an extremely bright and talented young lady with an excellent work ethic. She is a
"doer" who brings great joy and enthusiasm everywhere she goes. I would highly
recommend her as an outstanding addition to any team!”
